That is because there isn't one.
Microsoft would need to come up with a mechanism for us to detect that
(which Alex from MS suggested and said would be the simplest fix of all
other methods proposed).
Even then, he's not sure if MS would implement that workaround. From what I
understand in my lengthy discussion with him, it's likely that this won't
even get fixed for the life time of Windows 7.
